More "Star Wars" characters will be featured in the soon-to-be released "Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition" as Disney Interactive announced that it will be including the characters from Disney Channel's "Star Wars Rebels" in the game.
It was announced last month that the action-adventure sandbox game that features "toys to life" characters will include some of the most iconic characters from the "Star Wars" franchise, including Anakin Skywalker, Ajsoka Tano, Mace Windu, Padme Amidala, Darth Maul, Jabba the Hutt, Cad Bane, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Darth Vader. And since "Disney Infinity 3.0" focuses on the "Star Wars" series, it is not surprising that the game developer decided to include Ezra Bridger, Kanan Jarrus, Sabine Wren, and Zeb Orrelios in the game.
Lucasfilm's creative director Hez Chorba shared in the Star Wars website that opting to include "Star Wars Rebels" in "Disney Infinity 3.0" has been decided since the first part of conceptualization for the game.
According to Chorba, "It's [Star Wars Rebels] an important part of the saga and our entire team is proud of the stories being told in the series. That's when we got to, 'We need these characters.'"
The characters from "Star Wars Rebels" will be available in single-character packs, but it can be used in any of the upcoming playsets for "Disney Infinity 3.0," including: the "Twilight of the Republic" starter pack that follows the events after "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones"; the "Rise Against the Empire" that features the events during the first "Star Wars" trilogy; as well as another untitled playset that will feature events based on the upcoming "Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens" due to be released this year.
"Disney Infinity 3.0" will be released this fall with the Starter Pack that can be purchased for $64.99. Rise Against the Empire can be purchased as an additional playset separately, while the Force Awakens-inspired playset is expected to come out after the film premieres on Dec. 18.
Aside from the "Star Wars" feature, "Disney Infinity" also comes with several characters from the "Pirates of the Caribbean," "Monsters University," "The Incredibles," "Cars," "The Lone Ranger," and "Toy Story" movies, while the another one features iconic Marvel characters in the "Disney Infinity Marvel Super Heroes" playset.
